Monique Lhuillier
2008 January 16
Monique Lhuillier - Pre-Fall 2008
View Gallery
(NEW YORK) Monique Lhuillier is cognizant of her clientele's penchant for her evening wear, and she didn't disappoint with her pre-fall offerings. "It's for a glam night out--no-fuss clothes that everyone needs in their closet," said the designer. "Gowns are fluid and opulent in volume." Simple, stunning, and subdued best describe her endless selection of cocktail dresses and red-carpet gowns (for the record, separates were presented, but kept to a minimum in the form of a pair of tuxedo pants, skirt, and a handful of sequin-trimmed cardigans and tanks). Lhuillier's trademark has become her feminine use of silk chiffon and satin organza, and this time, when infused with such shades as mocha, raisin, granite, ruby, and teal (not to mention the requisite black), they made for smoldering eye candy looks, in which a short black-and-white cocktail dress with soutache trim was extra sweet. Among the strapless and sleeveless draped, pleated, and ruffled gowns--most of which were set in V-neck, cowl neck, or bateau-neck form--was an exquisite black silk charmeuse one-shouldered draped gown with embroidered sleeve. A chocolate billow gown with jeweled shoulder was also a nice departure from Lhuillier's generally body-conscious aesthetic

Gahhh, missed the voting.
On the other hand I still think the flags should be switched to reflect how our countries looks on a map (Denmark south, Norway west, Finland east).
Otherwise I would go for No. 1 (even if the Wampa looks a bit odd).

I didn't get to the vote in time.
But I'm for the second patch. I think the wampa looks... well, a little strange. I just think the cave needs to be bigger in the second to make it perfect.
Alligning the flags doesn't sound like a bad idea. Of course Sweden is kinda in the middle of things, so it would never be a complete geographical correct 'map'
-if you like FF of the crazy kind.

The Norwegian and Danish flags have to be on opposite sides of eachother, or else the red fields would join. If we are to rearrange the flags, then I think that the Norwegian flag could be on top, since a tiny part of Norway is also to the north of Sweden and to give Norway the "honor position" because it provided having the shooting location for Hoth.

I think so.
Honour position or not it think it would work to have Sweden facing west (even though I belive that in this context it´s an honour position to face towards US, home of SW).
On the other hand the two red fields in Dan and Nor flags mixing together isn´t that much of a problem (could actually be stylish!).

My knowledge of heraldry makes me severly allergic to having the Danish and Norwegian flags beside each other so that their red parts melt together. I don't care about the other positions.

Chrome 32 lets you easily find and close those noisy tabs
If you've ever wondered which of your 200 browser tabs is making all that racket, the latest Chrome Beta can lend an ear.
When a tab is streaming audio in Chrome 32 Beta, an indicator will appear next to the close tab X. The indicators will change depending on the source, so streaming audio will be denoted by a speaker icon, a red circle will indicate a Web cam, and Chromecast's box icon will notify you when you're broadcasting a tab to your television.

The Archbishop of Melbourne, Denis Hart, described the figures as "horrific and shameful".
They were released in a submission to a state parliamentary inquiry into the handling of abuse cases.
Campaigners say the true number of abuse victims could be up to 10,000.
In its submission, the church said the 620 cases went back 80 years with the majority taking place between the 1960s and the 1980s.
It says it is still investigating a further 45 cases.
In a statement, Archbishop Hart said it was important to be open "about the horrific abuse that has occurred in Victoria and elsewhere".

Special Offer
The science is simple: Eating fewer calories makes you drop pounds. But depriving yourself by skimping on meals and banishing snacks only makes you hungry and pissed off. Plus, you are more likely to binge in the end anyway. The real solution lies in cutting out just a few little extra items from each meal (truly, your taste buds wont even realize their absence) as well as making some food swaps so you sacrifice one fat-bomb ingredient and replace it with a more flavorful option. Incorporate a few of these ideas into your day and youll soon feel lighter andas a bonushealthier.
Instead of one croissant, eat two pieces of whole-wheat toast with a smidge of butter or cream cheese on each slice.
Scoop out the white-bread inside of your plain bagel.
Order or whip up an egg-white scramble with two pieces of turkey bacon rather than a whole-egg omelette with two pieces of pork bacon.
Use 4 tablespoons of hummus instead of 2 tablespoons of regular mayonnaise on your sandwich. Or go with mustard, which is practically calorie-free (just 3 in each little packet!).
Dress your salad with 1 tablespoon each of oil and vinegar in place of creamy ranch dressing.
Eat your French-or Italian-bread sandwich/hero open-faced so you consume only one slice of bread.
Opt for a 1-cup serving of no-butter microwave popcorn rather than munching on a bag of potato chips.
Snack on a medium-size cup of low-fat frozen yogurt in lieu of a candy bar.
Skip the croutons, halve the Parmesan dressing, and say no to extra cheese on top of your Caesar salad.
Eat two part-skim string cheeses instead of a plate of three crackers with whole-milk cheese cubes.
Skip the cheese and sour cream that often come as toppings on a bowl of chili or a baked potato.
Pass on the roll or pretzel stick that arrives with your soup or salad.
Order your burger sans cheese.
Nosh on a handful of pretzels at the bar during happy hour rather than the same amount of nuts.
Say no when your server offers fresh grated Parmesan cheese on your pasta.
Replace your vodka tonic with a vodka soda. (Soda water, like regular water, has nada calories.)
Dunk 10 tortilla chips in salsa, not guacamole.
Share a small order of spicy wings on the bone instead of breaded chicken wings.
When you cook at home, use a spray like Pam to coat the pan (spritz for one full second) instead of using a tablespoon of olive oil.
Put a dollop of Tru Whip on your slice of pie or cake rather than 2 tablespoons of hot fudge or chocolate syrup.

- Design is not just things. We experience the world around us in a myriad of forms, and design should be responsive to this, exploiting this fact to communicate ideas. By providing firsthand experiences, in the form of workshops, interactive installations and events, these projects aim to engage people in a 'hands-on' approach, bringing design to life, and as such combining a wide range of skills, ideas and opinions from all involved.
- Knowingly or otherwise, we are immersed in a Digital Topology. We are surrounded by digital objects and electronics, and these have become an intrinsic, inescapable part of contemporary life at all levels. The projects in this category consider the current and future development of this landscape, and how digital technology can be used in a social, cultural and local way. Merging digital and non-digital elements, I aim to create subtle and creative alternatives for this technology, questioning (and breaking) the rules of the current digital paradigm.
- These projects challenge the concept of what is (im)possible. Asking what we really know about reality, these designs are fantastical in their nature, but never frivolous or parodies. Taking design beyond its traditional role, I intend to show how it can be used to not only clarify, but to distort. Such speculative design can excite and stimulate, feeding our need for discovery and our imagination. The products in this category take us beyond our hopes for the future, making tangible our dreams of today.

Sisters of the Traveling Computers: Second Installment of Novel-in-Progress
Second Installment!
Sisters of the Traveling Computers
Eight great writers are going to produce a progressive novel -- like a progressive dinner! Each one will write a couple paragraphs in round robin style without discussing it with each other. This novel-in-progress will continue through the rest of the year. The scribes are Eleanor Brown (The Weird Sisters), Heidi Durrow (The Girl Who Fell From the Sky), Siobhan Fallon (You Know When The Men are Gone), Therese Fowler (Exposure), Tanya Egan Gibson (How to Buy a Love of Reading), Caroline Leavitt (Pictures of You), Sarah Pekkanen (Skipping a Beat), and Rebecca Rasmussen (The Bird Sisters.) All great books for reading groups!
First installment (May 15)
By midnight, he still wasn't home. Or he wasn't picking up the phone, which he knew would make her frantic with worry. She couldn't leave the Martin's now. Already, Mrs. Martin had told her that just cleaning up after the party wasn't enough, that she wanted her to also redust (redust!) the figurines on the mantle because "You didn't take enough care last time." Should she tell Mrs. Martin how Mr. Martin groped her as she trying to arrange the baby chocolate éclairs on a plate? Should she tell her how Bobby, Mrs. Martin's son, called her a stupid bitch and kicked her out of his room so she wouldn't catch him doing Jesus knows what?
She wasn't supposed to use her phone when she was working, but she dialed again. Maybe he was with Bette, his terrifying girlfriend. Maybe he was walking again, clearing his head about what had happened.
Second Installment (June 22)
Maria wasn't ready to become a grandmother at 42. And that was what she said first when--with his lips trembling—Mark told her that Bette was pregnant. She should have held him. He looked so scared. How could her teenage son become a father before he had a chance to become a man?
That was just five weeks ago, and now she wouldn't have to be a young grandmother. She wouldn't have to watch Mark struggle to take care of a family too young. Why couldn't Mark see the miracle in this moment?
The phone went to voicemail again.
It was a thirty-minute drive home from the Martin's. Let him be home by then, she thought. Just please let him be safe.
The first eight installments will be anynomous as the writers would like to guess who is writing that passage solely on sytle of writing. How fun!
Third installment will be in early July!

I'm looking for a towel warmer recommendation-low profile, close to the wall(small bathroom), and electric. Thanks!
myson. have hydronic or electric. high end.
I thought I was living reasonably well......... till now!
Towel warmer???? Wow, I'm missing out!
It's 9a.m. Let's have a beer!
I put one in in my master bath remodel...it doesn't get the towel hot, but it is warm...very nice after coming out of the shower. Since the towel quickly dries, it doesn't get funky as quicly, either. Wire in a digital timer and use a GFI circuit. I can't remember the brand...I bought it on-line, but it was sold at HD's Expo Center as well.

how about a toilet paper warmer too!!
nothing like having a warm cozey feel down there too!!
just kidding
I'd rather have the heated seat...didn't buy one of those, but I thought about it!

I had an electric towel warmer in an apartment I was in for three years. It never really got the towels very warm. Don't know the brand. I hope there are better models out there for you.
Now those....... I'm aware of. And don't like them..... When I sit down to, well.. you know, I want to sit on a cold seat.... a warm one makes me think someone else just got up..........Originally Posted by jadnashua
It's 9a.m. Let's have a beer!
You guys (& gals) are tooooooo much! Thanks for the laughs and advice! Our towels never get completely dry between showers in winter. Warm towels-ahhhh-life's short!
I know one thing for sure, around this house
the towels get used once and once only
then they are thrown into the laundry.....
God knows how long they might get reused if
you hung them on a towel warmer...
they would sort of get a life of their own after a while...
I wonder why that is? After you are done taking a shower..you are clean... and water that remains on one's body is clean.!?! So, besides getting the towel wet..how does it become dirty after one use!!!Originally Posted by master plumber mark
A damp towel is more prone to mildew than a dry one...

So, those moist towels in the hamper must be.... no good for the air quality in one's home..
I would imagine that a clean but moist towel would dry quicker hanging up and I'm sure long before mildew sets in...
I've had an electric towel warmer made by Runtal in my bathroom for about ten years now. It has three heat settings so the towels can be warm or really hot if you want. It's also great for keeping the bathroom comfortably warm even though the rest of the house might be too cold for wet naked standing around. I have it on a timer so that it's only on in the mornings. And it's low profile.

ENERGY COMPANY THWARTS FRACKING RULE: After more than six months of congenial meetings, the N.C. Mining & Energy Commission was set to approve its first fracking rule Friday, perhaps the most important of all the safety rules the commission will write to protect the public and safeguard the environment. The standard spells out which chemicals fracking operators have to publicly disclose when drilling natural gas wells in North Carolina.
But commissioners learned Thursday the proposal they had approved in committee in March is on ice. The problem: Fracking giant Halliburton has told North Carolina's environmental regulators the rule goes too far. The N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources is working to get the rule changed.
The developments raise questions about the independence and integrity of the Mining & Energy Commission, a panel created by the state legislature last year to create safety rules for shale gas exploration. Fracking refers to fracturing shale rock formations using high-pressure water and chemicals to release the natural gas trapped inside. Full story.

The family of the second wounded student did not reveal a name.
"We are happy he is on the road to recovery and doing well," Jenifer Davis said, adding that her son was shot in the abdomen and the bullet exited through his back. "He is in good spirits, although saddened by the loss of his friend, Mr. (Michael) Landsberry."
Jenifer Davis said the family spoke to others who were at the scene Monday who reiterated Mason's attempt to "intervene" once Landsberry, who died at the scene from a gun shot to the chest area, was hit. Jenifer said her son was "trying to help" the 45-year-old math teacher.
"We do not believe he was in any way the target in this shooting," she said.
The unknown second student was also doing well, according to his parent in a written statement, after being shot through the shoulder Monday. She said the boy was saddened by the loss of his teacher and expressed his sympathy for the Landsberry family.
"He has accepted what has happened to him and is getting stronger with each passing day," the statement read. "We do not believe our son was a target in this shooting."
The parents requested privacy for the family while their son "is focusing on getting well."
Upon Mason's recovery, Jenifer said she will be addressing "issues around gun safety" in the community in hopes preventing another a similar situation in the future.
Washoe County School District Police Chief Mike Mieras addressed school safety Wednesday afternoon in Sparks, highlighting that schools in the district are safe despite Monday's fatal shooting at Sparks Middle School.
Mieras said the emergency protocol put in place at all schools in the district worked well in Monday's events and he applauded the students and staff members who reacted quickly under pressure.
"During this incident the procedures that were in place in that school, those teachers and that staff did exactly what they were trained to do and did the proper steps along the lines of emergency management," Mieras said. "We have done trainings in emergency management at that school in the past and we have been very proactive about that."
Mieras acknowledged that the WCSD police force, now in its 40th year, has fallen victim to budget and staffing challenges being experienced district wide. He said 38 sworn officers, including himself, manage the safety of 93 schools and more than 100 sites throughout the district, including bus stops, satellite locations and more.
"Can you always have enough officers? No. I would love to have more officers, but we have to worry about doing the best we can with the staff we have," Mieras said. "The WCSD has been very proactive in having a police department. We are a very busy department, but my approach has been being professional and being proactive in keeping our schools safe."
Mieras said despite the staffing deficits, the schools in WCSD are safe and he said his staff treats the schools as the students' second home. He said the police and emergency management staff will be breaking down the events to discuss any changes to the system.
"With this situation, as with any situation like this that occurs across the nation, we will sit down and look at what went well, what didn't go well and where we need to improve and make changes," Mieras said. "We are also involved in new school design to ensure things like single point of entry and gated entrances are worked into the plans."

I was wondering did either of you notice my idea about doing birthdays for FW that I posted? I know its a big undertaking, and maybe too big, but I love using the free card sites and sending folks cards. Maybe, instead of doing individual cards, I could do one for the month of birthdays and send it to you guys to post on the site in the birthday section. That way every one who had a birthday that month could go to that spot and see their card, also other folks could add their well wishes too. Just a thought. I really do love birthdays. I love honoring someone on their special day! Have a great weekend, Blessings in Him

I don't want to compromise the purpose of this thread, but Shari's comment reminded me of something I've often wondered about. Why is it that some birthdays are noted and others aren't?
My profile lists my birth date - everything except the year. I don't recall ever receiving a birthday greeting. I also recall adding my name to an updated list, I think back in 2010 or may 2011.
Not a complaint - just inquiring.

But I see it's mostly from yesterday (when we moved our RV to a new location-always a huge production with all the packing and unpacking) and today so I don't feel so negligent.
I will run the 'birthday thread at the top' idea by Mike later.
He is in the midst of creating conference registration forms in HTML so I am leaving him alone while he creates the programming language applicable to post/link to the site.... shhhhhhh

Fire destroys home in ChittendenBy Lucia Suarez
Staff Writer | February 06,2013Vyto Starinskas / Staff Photo
CHITTENDEN — Heavy dark smoke covered a single-family home on Holden Road late Wednesday morning as local firefighters worked to douse flames that had spread to the attic.
Several firefighter teams used long prods and saws to make various holes throughout the house to allow smoke to exit the house while they worked to find flames and hot spots throughout.
A firefighter on the scene said the house is a total loss.
Firefighters from five towns – Chittenden, Pittsford, Brandon, Proctor, Rutland Town and West Rutland – responded to the scene around 10 a.m.
Paul Crain, who rents the house with his girlfriend and three kids, said he had just arrived home after dropping his girlfriend off at work when he noticed the smoke.
"I came in the door and whoosh (the smoke)," he said while looking at firefighters dousing the home. "I went through the smoke and grabbed my dog and got out."
Crain said nobody was home when it started, but said the flames were coming from the basement.
As of 1:45 p.m. the cause of the fire is unknown.MORE IN This Just InTODAY'S WEATHER MINUTE: Soil beneath Greenland ice sheet predates dawn of mankind, Hitch faces true Hollawood problem head-on, Mark Twain on school boards, all in today's minute. 0Rutland Herald content editor Rich Alcott shares local weather information and easily digestible...

This morning, a young man walked into Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., after murdering his mother in her home, and proceeded to shoot and kill 26 other people, including 20 children, before killing himself.
What else can I say, girls, other than, "How could anyone do such a thing?" I have no answer for that, because I truly can't imagine. But I know we need to talk about it—discuss our grief and our anger and our pain. And then, we need to start talking about change. What can we do for the families? For the victims? For the community of Sandy Hook and Newtown? For our own communities as they wonder if they're next? And what can we do to ensure that something so terrible never, ever happens again?
I don't have answers, darlings, but I do know that talking will help. Talk to your parents and siblings and friends and teachers. Speak honestly and openly. Don't judge others for what they say, just listen and respond. Remember, everyone's opinion is valid and deserves to be expressed, whether you agree with it or not.
If you're having trouble dealing with your grief, please take a look at this post, and talk to a parent, counselor or trusted adult.
Love to you all,

My daughter (14 years old) loves going here. She likes that the instructors are fun, hip and love dancing as well. Not over the top technical for a beginner, which is nice since my daughter started when she was 13 years old. Great studio and staff.
Amazing – Best Dance Studio Ever!
Great Dance Studio – This will be our third year at APA and I have two daughters who dance there. We love it! The teachers are outstanding and are very professional and take their job seriously. The recital at the end of the year is put together very well. The communication is great, with newsletters and updated information at the studio and online. We have been to a different studio our first year of dance and it doesn't even come close to APA!
Excellent Instruction! – Posted by coatsfamily on 01/13/2010
Six years ago I was looking for something fun for my four year old daughter... I never could have imagined what was in store for her. Her love of dancing was evident from the beginning and the staff at APA saw it and embraced it! They continue to do a great job challenging her without frustrating her. Hillary and the other teachers know how to get the best out of each and every student because they take the time to know each and every student. I feel lucky we found a home at APA!!!
Home Away From Home – There are so many words to describe APA! My daughter has been dancing at APA for 4 1/2 years and absolutely LOVES it! The kids that dance at this studio are amazing inside and out. They help each other out, they support each other throughout the dance year with encouragement and friendship! The older girls are always there for the younger ones. I truly believe that these dancers support each other because they see how encouraging and supportive the teachers are! There have been so many opportunities for these young dancers at APA. For example, because of her dancing at APA my daughter has been on the cover of a Costume Catalog and continues to model for them, and she is shown in the Yellowpages online commercial. These opportunities are emailed by Hillary, the owner of APA, to all APA parents so everyone has a chance to explore other fun avenues within the dance community! My favorite time at APA as a parent is during competitions when the teachers are so EXCITED about our dances as a studio and just encourage these kids to do their best and to have FUN!!!!! It makes me smile to think that if someone forgot something for a dance there is ALWAYS a dance teacher, another mom, or another dancer running around to see if they have extras for that child. APA is Home away from Home and everyone there is very supportive of each other. THAT IS WHAT I CALL A FAMILY!
APA Rocks!! – We have been with APA for 6 years now, and I wouldn't dream of ever going anywhere else!! The owner and her staff are all so talented and they each have a way of making every dancer feel special. They know how to challenge their students and encourage them to go that extra step to make them succeed. My two daughters dance 2 and 3 nights a week, and would go 5 nights a week if I let them!! They love it and I love seeing their passion for dance come alive at APA!!!
WE LOVE APA!! – My son has been dancing at APA for 5 years and he absolutely loves it. I like the fact that they acknowlege him as a male dancer and cater to what makes him most comfortable. All of the teachers have taken the time to help him develop and become more confident. He truly enjoys dancing there and I couldn't think of a better place for him to be.
Great Dance Studio – We have been part of the APA family for 5 years now. I have 2 daughters and they both dance at APA and we absolutely love the staff, the atmosphere, and the fun. It is not just a dance studio, we are a family at APA!!!!
WOW!!! – My daughter has been with APA for 2 years now and we have loved EVERY minute of our time there. We came from a VERY prominent and sought out studio in Cary where were happy but not thrilled. APA is in a completely different class. When you visit at first glance you won't be impressed. But, trust me and sign up. It's what's behind the doors. The people, the owner, the entire staff is wonderful. The organization of every facet of the dance studio is wonderful, from the class schedule to the recital rehearsals, timing and ticket sales. I truly cannot say enough good things about APA. Hope to see you at this year's dance recital.

About Cancer Research in Latin America
NCI's Vision for Cancer Research in Latin America
To advance local and global initiatives to prevent, diagnose, and treat cancer by facilitating the development of a comprehensive cancer research infrastructure in Latin America.
NCI's Mission for Cancer Research in Latin America
NCI's Center for Global Health (CGH) is dedicated to accelerating worldwide progress against cancer by:
- Cultivating international partnerships
- Promoting the development of research programs
- Facilitating the NCI's research activities in Latin America
Addressing the cancer burden in the United States requires a comprehensive examination of its effects on all population groups – including the U.S. Hispanic and Latin American populations. Understanding cancer patterns in Latin American countries can help researchers and physicians accelerate progress against cancer in the United States and in Latin America. CGH is committed to responding to the need and opportunity for cancer research in Latin America. CGH coordinates and facilitates NCI's international research activities in Latin America through collaborations with Latin American national health and science & technology ministries, research institutions, and universities.
The Growing U.S. Hispanic Population and Cancer Burden
The Hispanic population in the United States is growing and is expected to make up 29% of the total U.S. population by 2050. With this growing population comes a unique cancer burden that is important to address as part of NCI's efforts to improve cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
Approximately 100,000 new cancer cases were diagnosed among U.S. Hispanics in 2009, with prostate cancer being the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and breast cancer the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women. While cancer incidence and death rates are lower among U.S. Hispanics compared to non-Hispanic whites, research shows that overall cancer mortality rates among Hispanics are 22% higher among those born in the United States compared with those who were foreign born.1 That is why it is critical that CGH continues to develop partnerships and undertake research activities that will help better address this need.
NCI's Objectives for Cancer Research in Latin America
- To develop a comprehensive understanding of the status of the disease burden and cancer research and care infrastructure in Latin America
- To promote and leverage partnerships to conduct basic and clinical cancer research in the region
- To build collaborative relationships that enable co-development and in-country sustainability of high quality cancer research
These endeavors will provide new insights into cancer trends, foster collaborations, and advance science by supporting research projects based on common interests and mutual respect.

Terrorism - Action Needed to Protect Research Nuclear Reactors
Published on Wednesday, 27 February 2008 02:42
Written by Jim Kouri
by Jim Kouri, CPP
There are 37 research reactors in the United States, mostly located on college campuses. Of these, 33 reactors are licensed and regulated by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Four are operated by the Department of Energy and are located at three n ational laboratories. Although less powerful than commercial nuclear power reactors, research reactors may still be attractive targets for terrorists.
The US House of Representatives requested the Government Accountability Office to examine the basis on which DOE and NRC established the security and emergency response requirements for DOE and NRC-licensed research reactors, and to examine the progress that the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) has made in converting US research reactors that use highly enriched uranium to low enriched uranium fuel.
The DOE developed the security and emergency response requirements for its research reactors using its Design Basis Threat -- a process that establishes a baseline threat for which minimum security measures should be developed. These research reactors benefit from the greater security required for the national laboratories where they are located, which store weapons-usable nuclear materials. The DOE also has concluded that the consequences of an attack at some of its research reactors could be severe, causing radioactivity to be dispersed over many square miles and requiring the evacuation of nearby areas.
As a result, all facilities where DOE reactors are located have extensive plans and procedures for responding to security incidents. NRC based its security and emergency response requirements largely on the regulations it had in place before September 2001. NRC decided that the security assessment it conducted between 2003 and 2006 showed that these requirements were sufficient. While it was conducting this assessment, NRC worked with licensees to improve security when weaknesses were detected.
However, GAO found that NRC's assessment contains questionable assumptions that create uncertainty about whether the assessment reflects the full range of security risks and potential consequences of attacks on research reactors. For example, Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) -- a contractor NRC used to assist in performing its assessment -- found that some NRC-licensed research reactors may not be prepared for certain types of attacks. However, NRC disagreed with SNL's finding. In 2006, NRC concluded that the consequences of attacks would result in minimal radiological exposure to the public. In addition, NRC assumed that terrorists would use certain tactics in attacking a reactor but did not fully consider alternative attack scenarios that could be more damaging.
The NRC assumed that a small part of a reactor could be damaged in an attack, resulting in the release of only a small amount of radioactivity. However, according to experts at Idaho National Laboratories and the Department of Homeland Security, it is possible that a larger part of a reactor could be damaged, which could result in the release of larger amounts of radioactivity. The NNSA has made progress in changing from HEU to LEU fuel in U.S. research reactors but may face difficulty in converting some of the remaining research reactors.
Since 1978, NNSA has converted eight currently operating U.S. research reactors, including two in 2006. Also, the NNSA plans to convert 10 more U.S. research reactors by September 2014 -- five of which are scheduled for conversion by 2009. However, NNSA faces difficulties in converting the remaining five reactors because these reactors cannot operate with the currently available LEU fuel. NNSA is now developing a new LEU fuel that will allow the remaining five reactors to operate. But, according to NNSA, developing this fuel has been problematic, as early efforts experienced failures during testing. NNSA officials acknowledged that further setbacks are likely to delay plans to convert these research reactors. J

Norfolk >Sheraton Norfolk Waterside Hotel
777 Waterside Drive, Norfolk, VA | Directions 2351036.844017 -76.287285
It wasn't as bad as I read about but the personnel customer service needs improvement – My sister and I booked a one night stay at this hotel but only actually stayed a day (not overnight) we were waiting for a plane arrival. Our visit did not start out good, this is becasue of the people at the front desk. The two desk attendants were not accomodating or pleasant at all. We requested a room if available facing the water, they stated they were fully book and that wouldn't be able to. Which we fully understood but they were VERY snippy and basically rude about it.
Also while we waited in the lobby before we went to search for somewhere to dine we noticed that both desk clerks talked negative about just about every guest that left the counter.
And to top off the crappy service they were rude (and incorrect) in giving us direction to a local place to eat. The male of the duo we ended up calling a N*zi, I hate to use the word but that's what he reminded me of.
The attendants parking the cars seemed very nice until we were checking out and found that when we paid for parking in cash and he said we didn't need a receipt (something at the time I knew would come back to haunt us) seems he must have pocketed the cash.
One thing the crew on later in the night at the desk seemed a lot more pleasant and knew they were their for good customer service, but the morning crew just left a bad taste in my mouth.
The rooms didn't seem as bad as described by some (and I was looking for flaws), the room seemed clean and the bathroom also. And the bathroom is the first place I look in a hotel room.
over rated- – mold in shower- rivervue doors to balcony bolted shut- dirty windows- could not see out or take pictures-
$20.00 a night to park- wallpaper peeling in hallways and very stained carpet thru out-complaint to empolyees-"sorry" was all they said Not worth $200 a night
Comfortable hotel for hard-working business travelers and leisure guests looking to relax. – In Short
Each room features a large desk and Sweet Sleeper bed with a custom plush-top mattress, fleece blanket, duvet and five fluffy pillows. Rooms come with a two-line phone, voice mail, data port, safe, cable TV, hair dryer, iron and mini-bar. Notable amenities include a complimentary USA Today, pool and fitness center.
